Hey HOTFR8, that's just up the road. Too old, too late...

 

Rod & Relic posted it so no idea what he was about, but I see it is in SA.

 

Oh man that's gorgeous!

 

I´ve seen that beauty here in Sweden! Looking really good!

 

Saw this at LARS

Any front views?

 

Yes, on the link I posted on You Tube.

 

I've watched that vid probably a hundred times.
I always chuckle when I hear it fire up.
I guess I expect something with more rattle.

 

What got me was when he 'clicked' it into DRIVE!!

I never considered the possibility that these came with AUTOMATICS!!

 

That got me too, I never expected it to have a modern driveline...

 

I know the old saying w/o pictures it didn't happen,but. Today I came across a complete, rust and dent free, Diamond T COE cab. I wasn't able to get it as it was already sold.

 

A comlete, dent free, rust free cab. What's that??

If anyone runs onto a respectable cab for a 60-70s Dodge Tilt cab L600 or L700 on the east coast please let me know.

thanks,

Rick

 

Greens Auto Salvage, in Fremont , N.C. had one of those "L" series Dodge COE's several years ago.

 

here are some random coe pics

 

lots of work left hope it doesnt rust morephoto.JPG

 

phat rat,it seems that COES and cab forwards sell in days.Most other old vehicles can take weeks.makes it an interesting funtime locating these and estimating how long they will be available.most we find are sold same evening on the old fashioned telephone.

this coe site still takes my breath away

 

lots of work left hope it doesnt rust more

Lou, looks like your rusty coe is heading downhill......turn that picture 90 degrees

 

Ok, here is Lou's COE right side up, I sold him the cab last year as shown, the guy is a machine. Nice work dude!

 

Way too cool! I love how the bottom of the bed matches the contour of the cab. Tastefully done sir!

 

Ditto, the cab stretch and mild chop and just the overall proportions are perfect. Very Nice.

how much did you chop and what did you use for chassis and what drivetrain and wheelbase?
thanks

 

the cab is stretched about 8 inches, angle chopped about 3 inches with a gm p30 chassis ,454 and manual transmission ,couldnt of done it without bbops input and expertise on looking at cabovers (but never owning one) deck is too short for muscle car but just right for bonneville project (11ft) thanks for positive feedback,LOU

 

Awesome truck...I LOVE it!!!


....'cept I couldn't live with those wheels.....(but that's OK!!)

 

I so this GMC Coe on the internet. Locks A promising Build.
